The 'iPhone 7' and more

A nice amount of the discovered trademarks relate to iOS 10 and new Apple hardware like the “iPhone 7.” But there are also some interesting new terms we haven’t heard about. Here’s a sample:

Apple Iris Engine

AirPods Case

Smart Button

Touch Bar

Iris Image Engine

Swift Lab

Progress Card

Smart View

Rich Links

Control Strip

The most interesting find looks to be Iris Engine and Iris Image Engine. It could refer to the rumored iris scanning capability of next year’s iPhone, but more than likely it refers to some of the technology on the dual-lens camera of the “iPhone 7 Plus.”

Touch Bar and Smart Button could possibly refer to the rumored OLED status bar and Touch ID button on the MacBook Pro line that could be announced this year.

Apple should reveal the next-generation iPhone and “Apple Watch 2” during tomorrow’s special event that starts at 10 a.m. PDT in San Francisco. But if this list is any indication, we could be in for some surprises.
